Can I get a mailbox at a UPS store just like I can get a PO box at the Post Office?

Question

Also, I order products online that occasionally require "a physical address - no PO boxes." Is this just essentially the same thing as a PO box?

Answer 1

The UPS mailboxes have actually street addresses, unlike P.O. boxes. In order to get one (or find out about pricing) it looks like you have to find a local store. But here is the general information, and the site has a store finder:

Answer 2

Yes, you can rent a PO box there.

However, it works a little differently than the Post Office. When you list the address, it's written with the street address of the UPS Store and then your box #. Like this:
123 Any St., Box 5678
Anytown, IA 00000

The UPS Store will also keep your packages for you until you pick them up.

Ask them for the details.

Answer 3

Yes, you can. But it will probably cost you you a lot more.

I think you can even use a street address and "suite" number instead of P.O. Box number. This is advantageous if you have a home business and do not want to use your own address.

Answer 4

Yes, now you can at larger UPS Stores.

Answer 5

Absolutely, I know of many UPS places like this.

Answer 6

Not at all but at major UPS--YES>
